Talking of James, you all presumably know he has now formed a new band called Son Of Dork, this time with four fellow members, presumably so no one band mate can get above himself and call the whole thing off on a whim. The video for the band's first single 'Ticket Outta Loserville' is doing the rounds, but you'll be able to see them perform live at the T4 / Smash Hits Poll Winners Party next month, because they've just been added to the bill alongside all the usual pop suspects like Girls Aloud, Lee Ryan, Westlife, Rachel Stevens, Craig David and the always wonderful McFly. The annual pop awards bash will take place on 20 Nov at the Wembley Arena Pavilion, aired the same day on Channel 4.
Commenting on the event, Smash Hits editor Lara Palamoudian told CMU: "Once again, The T4 Poll Winners' Party With Smash Hits promises to be an amazing musical event. It truly is the event the stars want to play at, because readers of Smash Hits are some of the most devoted music fans in the world. Last year's Party saw amazing performances from McFly, Girls Aloud and Kylie, and the 2005 show will be bigger and better than ever."
